I was at a friend’s house the other day and he had a book of Rumi poems that I thought at first looked a bit annoyingly…..something. A bit ‘spiritual self helpy’ for me, I imagined. Not so: every single thing I read was amazing. Profound but also mirrored, puzzle like, genuinely probing.

I know what you mean. The English titles usually do give that impression. Rumi was a sensualist who is best absorbed in small and contemplative doses. Even in translation he packs entire world-views into a sentence or two. You should have seen him dance.

Ha, this is one is weekly. Happy sitting! Maybe you could quilt up a tree? I am thrilled that you are coming on this journey Lee. I have pitched a project that we can do together for this series. Waiting on a Board decision and possible bee harmonics.

Writing it as up we speak Sally. Great to have you breathing the same air on this fragrant road. Where will we end up? There will be jungles, scoundrels and tigers or is that Katy Perry that I can hear roaring?
